Looking good...looks like they are still holding their spots nicely

It was warm enough for some outdoor sun so i snapped a few pics of my male in the natural light.

Nice! My guy is in blue right now (again) so hopefully in a few days I can get some outside pics.

These are such beautiful snakes. Thanks to all for sharing!
About how big do these get as adults, and what size of enclosure will they end up in?

I know I could seek out a care sheet, but they tend to be hit or miss in terms of accuracy, so I thought I'd ask some folks who know from experience.

Mine is just about at the 3ft mark. I doubt he will get much longer if at all. He should put on some girth though. I am hoping to get a female this year and once she is full grown I may house them together. Right now mine is in a 3ftx18inx16in cage and he uses every bit of it. He climbs and cruises all day long. That being said I would go no smaller than what I have him in now, if I every do house together then I will be deciding between a 3x2x2 or 4x2x2.

Brilliant, thanks! Sounds similar to my Woma python. I love how active he is and how he actually uses the things in his cage. I think I'm putting a Children's python on my want list.

You won't be disappointed!
